Work dress code

Dress Code
Every business sets its own dress code according to company policy, clientele, environment and job requirements. These can vary greatly, so make sure to get particulars from the company you work for. While some businesses continue to require male employees to dress in a suit/ tie and female employees to wear suits and dresses, many companies in the U.S. have adopted a business casual dress code to allow employees to feel more comfortable and casual while maintaining a professional image. Obviously, the dress code at an auto shop will differ from that at a bank, so to some degree you will need to use common sense.

Appropriate clothing for work should never show too much cleavage, stomach, back, chest, feet or underwear. You should never wear wrinkled, torn, dirty or frayed clothing to work, or anything with language or words that anyone could find offensive.

Psychologists have studied how the clothes people wear influences attitudes, productivity and quality of work. The conclusions they draw tend to suggest that the better people feel about themselves, the better job they do. If you want to become a manager, dress like the managers in your company do. People do form impressions based on appearance, so dress to create the kind of impression you want others to have of you.Do’s for Men
